Officecam is broadcast most Fridays* at 8:30pm Eastern. It’s Fangamer’s live broadcast from their office, dealing with both business and silliness.

*They’ve moved the show exclusively to Friday recently. As for any off the record broadcasts, you’ll just have to play it by ear.

The channel is here: http://www.justin.tv/fangamer

Officecam has really started to build a strong fanbase. Interesting segments, and also fan interaction has already fostered some great moments.

This thread serves as an area to share screencaps, fanworks, anecdotes, drawdown portraits and the ilk.

*Drawdown is a segment where if you answer a question, one of the staff has one minute to draw you as an interpretation of your username.

*Freudian Slip is like Drawdown without the time limit, and on a packing slip. This is won by having the chosen interpretation from an ink splotch Rorschach test shown onscreen. You then get to send this slip to someone else, along with a small coupon.

*Friday is the usual day for the clay tutorials, so make sure to tune in then if you’re interested in this possibility. Sometimes they open the models to community input after construction – you’ll see a lot of these in this thread.

Screencap 1: Gentlenu has become both beloved and reviled, depending on who you talk to. He started as a humble Nu, then he rocked some 3D glasses. The glasses arms became a mustache, and it snowballed from there.

Screencap 2: From the Kirby night.

Screencap 3: I didn’t get Phanto without those googly eyes, so if anyone has a screencap, please post it.

Screencap 4: Phanto after he was fully twisted, chilling with a lady in some stock photography shots.

Screencap 5: The whole family. Notice Kirby’s permanent hair is the Conan O’Brien mode.

Sadly these are the only screencaps I’ve taken on this computer – I think I have a few from a few months ago but I’ll check for them sometime.

Ha ha, thanks.

I was actually out with the dog for the complete clockwork orange mode so I missed that entirely.

For those who are interested I’ve highlighted one of the more notorious moments in the stream here:
http://www.ustream.tv/recorded/3960508/highlight/49488

Well, it cut out a little early because I’m dumb, but it will let you keep watching from where it stops.
If the highlight doesn’t work, it starts at about 49:30.

Basically this kid stumbled upon the channel and was slinging a few weak insults around. But when he challenges Reid to a game of Halo 3, Reid draws him and he flies off the handle.

Steve isn’t alone… Phanto, to many, truly is one of gaming’s scariest characters.

Ha ha, you’ll get one if you keep trying. Everyone about 10 seconds ahead of me on the stream all the time though, so mine’s probably going to be a one and only, heh.

Here’s my drawdown portrait, as interpreted by Meeellla, iirc… Kind of Lisa Simpsonesque, heh. I love this pic. The crown and celestial providence were right on the money.

Officecam is great and when I get my weird Freudian Slip I will scan it for y’all.

Whoa! It’s my drawdown picture! It’s pretty awesome.

Thanks, Meeella!

This is happening RIGHT NOW

DumplingFriend:

Hmm.. the word ‘Ray’ in that picture looks awfully familiar…

blues brothers?!

Whoa! That does look pretty similar.

I have this weird bues brothers story, too.

Basically, as a little kid, I used to believe my parents were the blues brothers despite my mother not being a dude.

They (somehow) kept me believing that for years, and every time the blues brothers came on TV or something, I’d be like “Hey look! It’s mummy and daddy!”

So to cut a long story short, I had an odd childhood.

Wow! He’s being kicked mad hard! Freudian Slip is going to get pretty competitive I think.

The drawdown pics are getting more fantastic. Mow Down Joe’s is my fave so far. I think ferretfrenzie did your’s dumplingfriend.

More from last night,

1. Conanby cheers Gentlenu on as he takes his new dog for a walk.

2. “I am no mere dog!” Fiesta Lavos gets equipped with laser turret/rocket pack.

3. Blurry shot of Phanto’s key, created before this officecam.

4. The intern, ferretfrenzie, made a Mr. Saturn.

5. Most of the officecam minis family. Phanto is no longer sharing his hat with anyone.

Dear Officecam Crew,

It has come to my attention that in your last show, you drew a piece depicting a Winters scientist engaging in the glorious art of Tessie-watching, whilst the Tessies were involved in an intimate moment. I would just like to point out, that despite the claims of several of your viewers, this man was indeed holding a donut- not a frisbee.

Therefore, the man in the drawing was most definitely not my client, Dr. Andofrisbee but in fact his business rival, Dr. Andonuts.

On behalf of my client, I would appreciate no further mix-ups that may put him in questionable standing with the National Tessie Watching Society or any other organization. Failure to comply will result in immediate legal action against all parties involved.

Thank you for your time.

A rather blurry pic of the Frenzie slip from last week’s Freudian Slip. I could stare at this thing for hours…and I have.

HOLY PLO

Man, that piranha plant is so awesome!
I missed friday’s officecam again due to having 4 teeth removed.
Are the streams uploaded anywhere after being broadcasted? I think this is like the third one I missed…

I got an awesome Drawdown picture today from Steve! Apparently I’m a demon box that is also a Super Saiyan.

Gotta catch ’em all!

edit: What the hey!? I was ninja’d with the same pic. _scary

Only a minute apart. Ahh.

Fangamer Officecam is win!

Is it on tonight? I dunno if it’s happening this week, but I think Officecam is switching to Fridays only.

Officecam is one of the greatest shows ever.

I remember sitting in the chatroom watching as bboyspitz challenged Steve to Halo and raged lol.
SPITZU!!!

Here’s my Drawdown pic below

Heh heh, fun night. The best observation was how scared Inky looked regarding Pac-Man.

I had a fun time making a bunch of random objects for the katamari. Keep some ideas in mind for next time!

Boooo I missed this last night because I had a biking accident and I was in some serious pain yesterday… and I still have very limited use of my left arm and hand.

Tomato:

OH MY GOD HE’S DOING ANAGRAMS! CLICK THE BACK BUTTON WHILE YOU STILL CAN!

How is the merchandise going to be displayed? Are you gonna have a banner showing off the designs? I’m just concerned that a neophyte merch buyer isn’t gonna know what’s being offered if all the merch is gonna be folded up.

So Brian, Gerritt (who couldn’t make it), and I realized that it was Officecam time and nobody was playing since Reid was on the road with Camille and Steve is visiting his girlfriend. So instead, I got a quick Skype session with Brian and kinda did an ad-hoc show literally off the top of our brains, heh. What did you think?
